"BUT HE IS A GREAT DIRECTOR: VERY GOOD AT CHOOSING STORIES... VERY ACCURATE"
This morning, Esquire U.K. posted Ennio Morricone's "What I've Learned -- The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly composer in his own words." Here are two or three (click the link above to read the whole thing)...
"I wake early. I do some physical exercise in the house. Then, around 7am, I go out to buy the newspapers. I read the newspapers. I wait for my wife to wake up and then we have breakfast. I start work around 8.30am. And that’s my day, that’s my routine."
"In Django Unchained [2012], there’s that sequence where a dog attacks and eats a man. That was too much. I sent a message to Quentin Tarantino and told him that was too strong."
"Brian De Palma never smiles. But he is a great director: very good at choosing stories, he pays a lot of attention to the screenplay and he’s very accurate."
